Believe it or not these questions about Canada were posted on an International Tourism Website. Obviously the answers are a joke; but the questions were really asked!

Q:Will I be able to see Polar Bears in the street? ( USA ) A: Depends on how much you've been drinking.

Q:I want to walk from Vancouver to Toronto -can I follow the Railroad tracks? ( Sweden ) A: Sure, it's only Four thousand miles, take lots of water.

Q:Is it safe to run around in the bushes in Canada ? ( Sweden ) A: So it's true what they say about Swedes.

Q: Are there any ATM's (cash machines) in Canada ? Can you send me a list of them in Toronto , Vancouver , Edmonton and Halifax ? ( England ) A: What, did your last slave die?

Q:Can you give me some information about hippo racing in Canada ? ( USA ) A: A-fri-ca is the big triangle shaped continent south of Europe .. Ca-na-da is that big country to your North...oh forget it. Sure, the hippo racing is every Tuesday night in Calgary . Come naked.

Q:Which direction is North in Canada ? ( USA ) A: Face south and then turn 180 degrees Contact us when you get here and we'll send the rest of the directions.

Q: Can I bring cutlery into Canada ?( England ) A: Why? Just use your fingers like we do .

Q: I have developed a new product that is the fountain of youth. Where can I sell it in Canada ?( USA ) A: Anywhere significant numbers of Americans gather.

Q: Can you tell me the regions in British Columbia where the female population is smaller than the male population? ( Italy ) A: Yes, gay nightclubs .

Q: Do you celebrate Thanksgiving in Canada ? ( USA ) A: Only at Thanksgiving.

Q: Are there supermarkets in Toronto and is milk available all year round?( Germany ) A: No, we are a peaceful civilization of Vegan hunter/gathers. Milk is illegal.

Q: I have a question about a famous animal in Canada , but I forget its name. It's a kind of big horse with horns. ( USA ) A: It's called a Moose. They are tall and very violent, eating the brains of anyone walking close to them. You can scare them off by spraying yourself with human urine before you go out walking.

Q: Will I be able to speak English most places I go? ( USA ) A: Yes, but you will have to learn it first.

What is love? Love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you. :)

hehehe. I like the humor you are showing. It is good to see your funny side. People can get so serious here. And that is OK but sometimes I just need to stop being so serious and have a little bit of fun...
So while I am here, I will try not to get too serious.
By the way, I heard a rumor that the men in Canada find it soooo hot up there in the summer that they have all started wearing these...seems the flap keeps them cooler.

People may not remember what you say or do, but they will remember how you made them feel.

Looks like you're new to to the blogs, but I WILL figure out who you are lol!¿ My "sense" of humour serves me well.

Hey Queen!

Yep it sure made me chuckle, glad you liked it too.¿ I love your little messages you've posted this time back.

¿

Hey Sarah!

Those are pretty funny too, it's amazing to me how sheltered some in our world can be.¿ I used to kill myself laughing at the Jay Leno show when he'd go out and live interview people in the streets.¿ He'd ask very simple questions that most would know, but good lord some of the answers people gave were just ridiculous!

They met this American couple on their cruise and went to the quiz night together. So one of the questions was: How many nostrils does an elephant have? The American couple had no clue and because my uncle lives in South Africa were like- omg you should know this! My uncle was like yeah of course- but thinking so should you dumbass. lol

LOL! This is soooooo funny. I have spent many hours traveling across Cananda. Great people, but too many QE Highways. In fact, Cananda was the reason that I purchased my first GPS. Why they do not have sign that point to th USA prots I will never understand...
Jeepers...Whoops, I mean aah.
This sign would never be posted in Canada. They are not known for all the mentally unstable people that we havein the USA.

Quoting: Originally posted by irocasYeah, you guys are real smart. What's with your geese? All they seem to do is fly south and crap all over our golf courses. Hey Canada.. we're not a toilet for your geese.
